My Story

I was born into a fairly large family. I have 6 siblings one older brother, two older sisters, two younger brothers, and one younger sister. I am currently working towards my Texas Teaching Certificate and plan on being at SACS unless the Lord calls me elsewhere. I love the Lord and believe that he is the answer to all of the world’s issues. SACS has been a huge part of my life, and I am incredibly grateful to the school.

What church do you attend?

Wayside Chapel in San Antonio

What do you love most about teaching, coaching, or working at SACS?

The relationships that I get to have with fellow teachers and students are the best part to me about working here. Sharing the love of Jesus with each student is what I believe my mission is, and it is a major highlight of my day.

What sport(s) do you coach?

MS football and MS/HS baseball

Favorite Bible verse

Psalms 119:9-16 – “How can a young person stay on the path of purity? By living according to your word. I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands. I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. Praise be to you, Lord; teach me your decrees. With my lips I recount all the laws that come from your mouth. I rejoice in following your statutes as one rejoices in great riches. I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways. I delight in your decrees; I will not neglect your word.”

What are your hobbies and interests?

Sports, cooking, movies, friends, family, I simply enjoy being around people.
